Week 4

What does the internet train us to do well?

  • The internet trains us to be able to fish out sources and make conscious decisions as to whether they are credible sources or not.
  • It also helps us to become more tech-savvy and gives us the ability to navigate the internet and the things we consume much better
  • more independent learning and more freedom to learn independently

What does the internet make it harder for us to do?

  • The internet has definitely lowered our attention spans, making it harder for us to consume longer content
  • . It has also made us almost completely reliant on it for most things. For example i go to the internet for most things without even checking to see if someone around me may know

Good Friction

  • The website I joined has a table. of contents before the actual website, giving you a clear outlook on where you might wanna go within the site
  • . Instagram gives you the option to add friends before fully joining the site, to get you more connected
  • . Apple gives you the option to either share Face ID or enter a regular passcode

Bad Friction

  • The BJS app only gives you the option to use email, but not a phone number, to log in
  • The only way to get into my iCloud is to be connected to another Apple account
  • FaceTime on iOS is only available on Apple products
